    Its not so much the problem people dont think , its how they think and the fact their egos are so hooked on this culture of show & tell technology everything else falls in line so it .
    becomes an automatic reaction.

    Sure, by all means share something - but only if some one asks to see it or its for some purpose beyond always needing to get a response i.e sharing ideas to solve problems

    Gossip for gossip sake IMO is usually 99% bad , whether its online or offline , it never leads to anything good.

    I think this thread wins the award for most misleading title ever. Being placed into protective custody is not being kidnapped.

    In criminal law, kidnapping is the taking away or transportation of a person against that person's will, usually to hold the person in false imprisonment, a confinement without legal authority. This may be done for ransom or in furtherance of another crime, or in connection with a child custody dispute.- wiki-pedia

    Protective custody is a type of imprisonment (or care) to protect a prisoner (or other person) from harm, either from outside sources or other prisoners.

    So tell me who exactly they were protecting him from , and who was supposed to be a danger to him other than themselves ?

    I think this is just another standard Melon thinks the government is evil thread.

    Lets see we have a DJ on and anti-government radio show supposedly speaking on the phone with a self confessed ex marine with anti-government opinions who posted anti-government messages and/or material on his Facebook page.

    Yeah I'm sure they have given all the relevant facts..... NOT!

    ---edit---

    And for the record Melon as you say kidnapping is taking someone WITHOUT legal authority.

    Protective custody is court ordered so it carries legal authority and is not kidnapping.

    You have no idea what has gone on in this case.

    The FBI could have interviewed him because of his messages which would be of more concern since he is an ex marine and military trained.

    They could have suspected that he was unstable and placed him in protective custody until they establish his stability.

    If that same marine was left alone and 6 months from now wigged out. walked in to a shopping mall and gunned down 50 people then you would be posting a thread that the US government trains killers and then throws them out on the street without making sure they are stable.

    I could ask you the same question.

    I give you a perfectly viable rebuttal to your statement and all you can do is throw out sarcastic comments.


    ---edit---

    And had you bothered to do any research you would have found he is not in protective custody he is "detained for psychiatric questioning" for making statements on his facebook that caused the authorities concern for public safety.

    no sarcasm , just wee joke which you seem to have taken to heart.

    as for space cake - no sorry - but i think I will need it if I have to keep re-answering the same old questions with evidence Ive already posted to back up my claims.

    If our governments are guilty free, then go tell the millions unemployed that, or the tortured relatives of families in south america & iran , or those who old folks who cant afford heating , while mps use offshore accounts or other schemes like expenditure controversy to dodge taxes ,or steal money instead.

    Who was responsible for all that ?

    The milkman

    I mean seriously , if your suggesting all that never happened then you better have bloody good evidence other than some pseudo skeptic argument just to counter everything I say as black is blue.

    ok at no point did I say the government is guiltless you seem to be taking the simple question of if this person being detained was right or wrong and applying the answers to how evil the us government in general is.

    Do I think the US government has a lot to answer for... yes

    Do I for instance believe there there are unanswered questions about 911 and evidence to support a possible government involvement... Yes

    Do I think the detaining of Brandon Raub for questioning is wrong... No. (but that does not in any way mean that I think the US government or any government for that matter are angels)

    Sorry m8 but your last answer to me just screams left wing conspiracy theorist more than it does level headed person who does research and can open debate their opinions.

    every time there is a mass shooting someone pipes up that if the government had acted on the signs then it could have been prevented.

    It's a catch 22 if they act they get roasted if they don't they get roasted... you can't please everyone

    And referring back to the original issue that this thread started over. His facebook page is a closed page so the general public cannot see what is on it. that means that statements he made there were sever enough to cause one or more of his facebook friends to file a complaint with the authorities which is why they took this action.
